Öğe Low back pain during pregnancy and Kinesio tape application(Ios Press, 2017) Reyhan, Aycan Cakmak; Dereli, Elif Elcin; Colak, Tugba KuruBACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Low back pain is a common problem during pregnancy. Although the pain usually occurs in the third trimester, it might be seen in the first trimester, too. There are various types of applications for the treatment of low back pain during pregnancy. However, there is a lack of evidence for the effectiveness of each method. If there is not an obvious deficit, bed rest, exercise, conventional physiotherapy, using protective principles for the lumbar area are recommended, since the main and the only complaint is low back pain. It is aimed in the current review to investigate the use of Kinesio tape in the low back pain seen during pregnancy and to review the literature related to this subject. CONCLUSION: There are only a few studies investigating the effect of Kinesio tape during pregnancy in the literature and they mostly did not aim to study the low back pain, further evidence and studies are needed to investigate the use of Kinesio tape for the low back pain seen during pregnancy as there is not evidence strong enough. Kinesiotape application aims to increase circulation and mobility, and regarding these gains decreased pain and increased performance are expected.Öğe The effects of Mulligan's mobilization with movement technique in patients with lateral epicondylitis(Ios Press, 2020) Reyhan, Aycan Cakmak; Sindel, Dilsad; Dereli, Elif ElcinBACKGROUND: Lateral epicondylitis (LE) is a common problem of the arm. Mulligan has proposed the use of mobilization with movement for LE. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effects of Mulligan's mobilization with movement (MWM) in LE. METHODS: Forty patients were included in the study and randomly assigned to group 1 (n = 20), who received MWM, exercise and cold therapy, or group 2 (n = 20), who received exercise and cold therapy. The sessions were conducted five times a week for two weeks. All measures were conducted at baseline, after treatment, at 1st and 3rd months follow-ups. Mann-Whitney U test, a visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain intensity, Patient-rated Tennis Elbow Evaluation (PRTEE) Questionnaire for pain intensity and functional disability and a dynamometer for hand grip strength were applied. RESULTS: VAS activity pain significantly decreased in group 1 after treatment (p = 0.001), at the 1st (p < 0.001) and 3rd months (p = 0.040). There was a significant decrease in VAS night pain in group 1 (p = 0.024), and a significant increase in pain-free grip strength (p = 0.002) after treatment. PRTEE-Pain scores decreased in group 1 after treatment (p < 0.001), 1st (p < 0.001) and 3rd months (p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: MWM plus exercise and cold therapy is a safe and effective alternative with positive effects on elbow pain, functional capacity, and pain-free, maximum grip strength.
